Beautiful Minds
04:03
|
|||
Monday morning was a beautiful day
Things were workin' out in every way
The news was coming in low whispers
Crucial times in the past were remembered
Tuesday morning rolled by so fast
That the things we did turned up in the past
The news was coming in a low rumble
Crucial times began to stumble
And beautiful minds think alike, at the speed of life
And someday you'll understand, yeah, someday we'll all understand
And beautiful minds think alike, at the speed of life
And some day you'll understand, yeah, someday we'll all understand
Wednesday was a blur to most you'd ask
Memories in that past were no more
The news was coming in much stronger
Crucial times weren't goin' to last longer
Thursday there could have been some change
But everyone just wanted to blame
The news was coming in so loud
That crucial times lost its ground
And beautiful minds think alike, at the speed of life
And some day you'll understand, yeah, someday we'll all understand
And beautiful minds think alike, at the speed of life
And someday you'll understand, yeah, someday we'll all understand
Oh God, do you listen, anymore? anymore?
Oh God, do you care anymore? anymore?
By Friday enough was already enough
People forgetting what was love
The news had us by our lives
No more time for crucial times
Saturday and Sunday were disturbed
By the utter fall out we deserved
The enemy had it made on every end
The thoughtless victory of mad sin
And beautiful minds think alike, at the speed of life
And some day you'll understand, yeah, someday we'll all understand
And beautiful minds think alike, at the speed of life
And someday you'll understand, yeah, someday we'll all understand

One step forwards
Two steps backwards
Come in and follow
I will fall downwards
To the point you've made for me
She was an angel or something like a demon
She had reason
That is how I knew here
Uh la la la Uh la la la
Huh Huh Huh Huh
Uh la la la Uh la la la
Huh Huh Huh Huh
One leap forwards
Two leaps backwards
I made it this way
I'll lose it all today
Cos the choices I wanted made
In this angel or demon
That likes to belong
To the ones wronged
That will take him down and out
down and out
down and out
down and out
Dark lights
Sunrise crys
Look in her eyes
I want to find
Everything (mmmm)
Uh la la la Uh la la la
Huh Huh Huh Huh
Uh la la la Uh la la la
Huh Huh Huh Huh
Something in good
Came a horrible thing
Something in me

Huh Huh Huh Huh
Love lay down
Yeah oh Yeah
Come into my bed
Get inside of my head
Leave me a stranged
Say its OK
To say it wrong
And live in evil
This river runs dry and I can't sleep
I'm so tired of the people we meet
Tell me when it all come to a close
I'll pick it off if you can Let it go
Let go of me
Something in good
Came a horrible thing
Something in me
I cannot explain
Something in good
Came a horrible thing
Something in me
I cannot explain
Listen to me

Its a gunshot
I got ya'
Its a gunshot
My soul is outta control
My soul is out of control
Fighting itself
With this

Good Company
03:25
|
|||
10 years ago
I was waiting around
I was looking for something
I would have never found
And the places I saw
And the places I knew
In good company
You don't have to worry
But when a gun is to your head
You feel something else instead
There should have been something else
To this story
Ah, something better
To the story
And now this is the part
Where you com in
It's not the one where we start
With perfection
Take a look all around
Tell me what do you see
Anything beautiful
Tell me what do you see
In good company
You don't have to worry
But when a gun is to your head
You feel something else instead
There must've been something else to the story
Something else
To the story

Air
02:08
|

And in the sea of dreams
I am wondering
Where I will be
(Mmm) just wondering
Are you listening?
Are you willing?
To take to the air
To let go of your cares
Get through to the sea
Get past your dreams
Are you
Are you there
Are you
Are you there
To take to the air
To let go of your cares
And run run
Run
And never look back

Normality
04:44
|
|||
You're Bigger Than Yourself
You Think You Know
Everything
You're a funny brother
Trying something other
(then) Normality
Normality
Catastrophic
And something else
I forgot to tell you
I want to love you
Unconditionally
But that is not normality
That is not normality
In the third person
Or the last phrase
I want to
I need to
tell you
I passed you up
I should have loved
When I had the chance
Black cars and bullet proof vests
Somethings you can't contest
You are my love alibi
Love
Stay
Tonight
Look
Love
In the eyes
(and)
Kiss me Where it hurts
My mother never held me
No one will ever believe in me
I want to kill this feeling
Come on love
What on earth are you waiting for
Something to fall from the sky tonight
The stars will fall from the sky
His love will fall from the sky

Passenger
03:51
|

You speak softly
Your lips hardly move a beat
You're trippin' uneasy
On daisies Man not God made
You're trying hard not to shed a tear down your cherry cheek
(your cherry cheek)
You're all alone
You're going nowhere
You're all alone
You're going nowhere
Passenger
Passenger
You want your baby
To see the light once again
You want to get out
From the inside out into the next day
You wanna go on your way
You want it now
Cos' tomorrow is too late
No one really knows
Whats going to happen
Cos the time they said they didn't know
Was the only time they told the truth
Passenger
Passenger
Come on now
Come on now
Get yourself off of the ground
Come on now
Come on now
Get yourself off of the ground
Come on now
Come on now
Get yourself off of the ground
Come on now
Come on now
Get yourself off of the ground
Passenger
Passenger
[i'v got a destination for you]
2xvoice = some find fortune some find faith some find love some find you
I've been waiting for so long
To let you in dear
I'll give you a new day
Let you get on your way

You wake up
Oh you get up
You hear some
Disturbing news
Oh wake up
Come on get up
This late day
Is stealing you
No one should have to live this way
No one should have to live this way
You have business for the day
You have things to take care of
You have reason on your way
You have something to love
You have morning shining through
But it doesn't feel that new
You have promises to make
Rolled up within mistakes
No one should have to live this way
No one should have to live this way
Everywhere you walk all the sorrow on the streets
No one should have to live this way
No one should have to live this way
Everywhere you walk all the sorrow on the streets
You and me
Me and you
Diss belief
Diss belief
A simple mind is all we need on our side
A simple mind is all we need on our side
A simple mind is all we need on our side
A simple mind is all we need on our side
Come on love don't give it up
Come on now don't give it up
Come on love don't give it up
Come on now don't give it up

Boy
03:09
|
|||
Mmm, Mmm
Mmm, Mmm
And so I'll go back
To the places I don't want to be
And so I walk back
Into the things I don't want to see
You're walking into walls
You're falling all over yourself
You're tripping on daisies
You're wondering, now waiting
Little boy
You look so innocent
But you'll destroy
Anything, anything, anything
Anything
Little boy
You look so innocent
But you'll destroy
Anything, anything, anything
Anything
And it feels so right
But you don't see why
And it looks like it
Could be something good
There is something bad
In the middle of it all
So now you're walking into walls
A crooked door, a lonely room, another wall
Little boy
You look so innocent
But you'll destroy
Anything, anything, anything
Anything
Little boy
You look so innocent
But you'll destroy
Anything, anything, anything
Anything
Ah, Ah, Ah
And it feels so lonely
In this place
I have made for me
Could you see
I want you to know
I want you to see
I want you to hear
My pain, my pain
Now let's start
To the beginnings end
Now rewind
Oh rewind
You rewind
Little
Boy

Baggage
04:34
|
|||
You thought all was lost
You thought all was gone
You took every single word spoken to you
As if it was gold given to you
There's a passenger next to you
There's an angel looking out for you
Just drop your baggage
At the Door
(at the door)
Then across the street
People you use to like to meet
In the coldest evening
You are still learning
There's a passenger next to you
There's an angel looking out for you
Just drop your baggage
At the Door
(at the door)
At the door
At the door
We have no time for crying
No time to look back
No time for lying
No time to take back
Only time for moving
Forward into the next day

Sorry

[Cha]
You can kill me
Come on kill me
Come on kill me
Come on
Come on
Come on and kill me
And kill me
(this time
it's destiny kill me
Destiny kill me)
It's late tonight
But I feel fine
My vision is grey
But I feel ok
We open the door
To something more
To words and feelings
And prayer and kneeling
(scat singing)
What did you need
Was it you in me
You speak out loud
Drowning out
Voices
You'll be
Sorry
For what you've done
Sorry
For where you've gone
Sorry
For what you've done
Sorry
For where you've gone
(with this)
You scream
In pain (oh)
But no ones there
(Cos') no one cares
So sarah says its not that bad
To lose yourself and be sad
You love
You love
Love spelled with hatred
Love turning faded
are you
are you
are you
are you
Sorry
For what you've done
Sorry
For where you've gone
Sorry
For what you've done
Sorry
For where you've gone
With this
With this
With this
With this
With this
With this
With this
With this
Now (repeat to end) [this becomes "no")
mmm ooh
mmm ooh
mmm ooh
mmm ooh
You can kill me with destiny
You can kill me with destiny
You can kill me with destiny
You can kill me with destiny
you you you you

Turning Back
03:31
|
|||
A world
Of regret
Seeminglisly
Never reaching the end
If I could
You know I would
Change everything
Make you stay
Take it all back
Take it all back
Change the course of time
And make you mine
A bitter mistake
Until the end
Finding out we're closing in
Some things can't be said
To take back what's been done
And If I could
You know I would
Turn back time
You know I would
Take it back
Take it back
Change the course of time
With you as mine
